Wearing head wraps is a Nigerian woman's tradition that has deep roots in Yoruba culture. The elongated headwraps are popularly known as Gele style.  In older times, the Gele was wrapped in different styles. Based on the type of wrapping, one can identify the woman’s marital status. Now, with modernization, although such beliefs have moved. But the culture of wearing wedding Gele and Gele headbands at social gatherings is kept alive. Previously, Geles were wrapped around the head manually. After pre-tied Geles were introduced, women could easily wear them like a hat. Different styles and sizes made of varied fabrics are available to shop for in pre-tied Geles. Let’s explore the trending Geles.

Best Gele fabrics to shop

The aso-oke is a hand-woven fabric used to weave Gele in older times. This fabric gives a good texture and stays stiff without losing its shape. Even today, you can shop for the handcrafted, ready-to-wear African head wraps and structured Gele hats, which are also made from aso-oke fabrics.

Handcrafted fan Gele

Fan Gele is one of the trending Geles for modern wear. Matching the name, it exactly looks like a fan with wide pleats. Fan Gele is ideal for attending weddings and formal events. Fan Gele also comes in different detailing, such as large cascading, elegant crystal work on one side of the Gele, or Swarovski crystals woven throughout the entire Gele headband. It's your choice to decide whether to go with the plain fan Gele or if you want to make a much bolder statement, you can choose the designer ones.

Infinite Gele

The handmade infinite Geles' versatile pleats are overlapped to create a graceful, elegant flow. It is the perfect wear for formal and casual occasions. Women wear infinite Gele headbands to enhance the sophisticated look. An infinite Gele matches with any skirt type.

Turban Gele

Turban Gele is another ready-to-wear Geles. As the name suggests, it looks like a turban when worn. This Gele is very comfortable to wear and carry to any feminine events.
